"Willie is just amazing!!! Totally blown away with the whole experience and quality of his companies work! He was quick to respond to my multiple questions and was a pleasure to talk to! Him and his partner went ABOVE and beyond! I had a list of things to get done for a local move. They unmounted and remounted my 60 inch TV, broke down and reassembled my adjustable bed frame(Which was huge and friggen heavy), put together big furniture cabinet, Took apart an old wooden bed frame and hung curtains rods for my bedroom windows. They were fast, efficient, friendly, informative and very reasonably priced! This guy does it all so if you need a task completed call Willie! 10 out of 10! HIGHLY RECOMMEND"

"Michael has done what he said he was going to do, which isn't always true of "handymen". He did a meticulous job installing our front door and painting it. He is not satisfied until the job is perfect. He is friendly to boot!"

"While Aztek was the highest priced of the companies who I contacted they seemed the most knowledgeable. As the structural work that they were doing was to correct problems caused by my original builder, I was not going to go with the lowest bidder again. Pat was easy to talk to and Don, his foreman was very helpful in explaining the problem and the renedy, They were quick, clean and efficient."

"Bill and his crew were fantastic! Bill was always quick to respond to any questions I had and kept me updated about the project timelines. His crew demo’d walls in my bathroom, put up new sheetrock, spackled, taped, painted and also installed a new floor. Fantastic workmanship! Will definitely hire them again for my future projects. Highly recommend Advanced Interiors!"

"We are enjoying our sunroom that was completed in March 2023. Mike and the team were accommodating and professional. We love the window & screens and the option of taking the windows out for a more open feel and also for cleaning. The financing option is also a great which made this sunroom addition affordable. Thanks to SRA Home Products for a great build."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.
